Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 scoop vanilla protein powder
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • Pinch of ground cloves
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/2 cup milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened applesauce or mashed banana
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon black tea concentrate or 1 strong brewed black tea bag, cooled
  • 1 teaspoon maple syrup (optional)
  • Oil or butter for the griddle

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the protein powder, flour, baking powder, cinnamon, ginger, cardamom, cloves, nutmeg, and salt.
  2. In a separate small bowl, whisk the egg, milk, applesauce, vanilla extract, black tea concentrate, and maple syrup (if using).
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are fine.
  4. Heat a non-stick griddle or pan over medium heat. Lightly grease with oil or butter.
  5. Pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the hot griddle for each pancake.
  6. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, until bubbles appear on the surface and the edges look set. Flip carefully and cook the second side until golden brown.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite toppings.

Notes

  • Adjust the tea concentrate for a stronger chai flavor.
  • For extra richness, use almond or oat milk.
  • Top with a dusting of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey.
